Brkovi’s subsequent albums— (2018) and "Nakon što smo se najeli, digli smo kurce" (2021)—continued in the same vein. While some fans argued the band had become predictable, others appreciated their refusal to chase trends. "Zbogom, mladosti" was a nostalgic look at aging in the punk scene, while the provocatively titled 2021 release returned to shorter, faster songs, reaffirming their love for raw energy. Notably, their 2023 live album, "Uživo u KSET-u" , captured the sweaty, communal spirit of their legendary concerts—a crucial document for understanding Brkovi’s true impact.

Translating to The Future Will Be Better , this album is darker and more politically charged than its predecessors. Recorded during the rise of post-recession depression in Croatia, the lyrics reflect anger at the system. The re-recording of their old demo track "Bacit ću bombe" serves as a bridge between their raw past and their more polished, muscular present.
Prvijenac koji je postavio temelje. Album je sirov, brz i agresivan, a već tada se nazirao spoj koji će ih proslaviti. Pjesme poput "Nisam ja za tebe" i "Odlazim" donose rani, čistokrvni punk zvuk s folk prizvukom.

Released on (the state broadcaster’s label, an unlikely partnership for a punk band), Sve je za ljude is a masterpiece of Balkan punk. The production, handled by Srđan "Srđa" Marković , is warm and full, giving the rhythm section (bassist Aleksandar "Keks" Milivojević and drummer Dejan "Dex" Petrović ) room to groove.
